Wow. So it wasn’t about a tortoise.
I had heard rumors but didn’t know if it was true or not.
I’ve been repeated asking this question hoping someone know or can find the answer
Is this land in NV or the land targeted by the BLM in TX or CO used as collateral for any of the Chinese loans?
There were threads back awhile stating that the loans from China were secured with federal lands
We need to know ASAP !
Dirty Harry and Son are probably drawing up the plans as we speak!
This is precisely the situation about which Jefferson (IIRC) was thinking when he said: "The price of freedom is ETERNAL VIGILANCE."
They only retreated so they can attact from a different direction.
He’s Fk’d...
Period...
Finito...
They’ll be back, but you can bet your azz it won’t be until after the midterm election!
The demoncraps knew this was ‘bad press’ on steroids.
Time to go on the offensive!
This has a long way to go. Bureaucrats are always looking up the chain for guidance, and the local BLM clearly didn’t have it in this case.
So they withdrew.
Now the Feds at higher levels are organizing to find who who is these protests, what special skills they may have, intent, leadership of the group, etc.... Washington at the highest levels is now cranking up its intelligence capabilities, and also drawing up scenarios and PR.
Round 2 will come shortly.
1. 200 armed, gear queer JBT appear for basically ONE rancher defying a court order is perceived by freedom loving people as a huge provocation and overkill (fortunately not literally). So this was a “wake up” call for many people who wouldn't have cared otherwise. So on this one item alone, the government starts off stupid and heavy-handed.
2. The peoples' response. So MANY went to Nevada. They quickly outnumbered the 200 feds. That made the optics for the government look horrible in an election year. Even when your an Obamass kissing toady, THAT many people standing up to armed thugs has an appeal to Americans based on our culture of rooting for the little guy. Very powerful thing to see, thousands of people risking their lives and prosperity to defy what they perceive to be grave wrong and affront to Liberty.
3. We prayed for God's help. Do NOT overlook this aspect. Not now or in the future. As St Paul said in Romans, “If God is for us, who can be against us?”
4. The whole world was watching. Read the British press. Read the posted comments. You would be amazed! The government knew, too. And certain countries foreign press would LOVE to turn this on Obama, given Syria and the Ukraine, for example. Again, optics. Election year. Power versus innocence. Think Alinsky.
5. By ignoring this, ignoring the IRS scandals, ignoring Benghazi, Fast and Furious, voter fraud, etc, etc, the media loses more and more prestige, and whatever viewers they have left.
Do not ignore the power of my number 1 above. When when I showed the pictures to even Low Information Voters, they were furious. There is something visceral about it when people see what appears to be heavily armed forces lined up against American civilians. People DO NOT want any more Wacos. The government actually really stepped on their cranks with that one.
Time to use it as a campaign issue against them.
Tie every demoncrap senator to Hairy Reed and O’bastard, then flog them with it until even they think they’re at fault!
Yesterday an estimated 200K people showed up for a victory rally for the UCONN basketball teams. Wonder how many of them cared one wit, or knew about Bunkerville, NV?
The confrontation was a huge PR debacle. There’s no doubt there’s some screaming and ass kicking going on behind closed doors. The aftermath won’t be pretty. They’ll be back with vengeance on their minds. Bundy has to pay for making them look like fools. You can bet more pressure will be applied next time with lots more reinforcements.
They need to be met again with resolve and a whole lot more.
Anybody know of a site where donations could be sent?
What part of this do you NOT understand.
A court order is only as good as law enforcement back its up.
BLM tried to back it up until they got way outnumbered by
Patriot armed militia...with probably thousands more on the way
to support Bundy until BLM waived the white flag.
